Darlings is a solid mix of dark comedy and drama with some sharp directing and great performances. The pacing slows down a bit in the second act, but overall, the movie keeps you hooked with its engaging storytelling. The cinematography adds to the mood, using tight shots and lighting to build tension without feeling too heavy. The script is smart, balancing humor and deeper themes in a way that feels natural. The cast absolutely carries the film. Alia Bhatt is fantastic, and Shefali Shah and Vijay Varma bring a lot to their roles, making every scene feel real. Their chemistry makes the story hit harder. The background score fits well, setting the right tone without being too much. Even with the slight pacing hiccup, Darlings is a well-made, well-acted movie that sticks with you.
